How to have good skin? You must not be lazy

They say there are no ugly women, only lazy women. Especially when it comes to skin care, you must be careful and patient in taking care of it. Don’t let your skin betray your age!

1. First, wash your face carefully

① It is best to wash your hands with soap first, and note that it is not enough to just rinse them with water.

②Wet your face with warm water.

③Lather on your hands first, do not apply directly to your face, this will reduce the concentration and avoid irritation to the skin.

④ Rub in circles from bottom to top. Do not rub too hard. The movements should be gentle and the duration should not exceed three minutes.

⑤Finally, wipe your face dry. It is best to use a disposable cleansing towel to wipe your face.

*Note: do not wash your face with soap as it will disrupt the acid-base balance of the skin barrier.

2. Do a good job of moisturizing

After cleansing, moisturize immediately.

But how to choose the right mask, lotion, cream, etc.?

When choosing a moisturizing product, the most important thing is to choose one that suits you and to judge based on actual usage. Well enough……

1. Look at the ingredients

When choosing toner or facial mask, if the ingredients contain polyols (glycerin, propylene glycol or sorbitol, etc.), it can reduce the evaporation rate of water and have a better moisturizing effect.

2. Look at the type

Creams and lotions are more moisturizing, while essences and gels are more refreshing.

Therefore, refreshing types are more suitable for oily skin or teenagers, while moisturizing products are more suitable for mature skin, but the final judgment should be made based on actual usage.

3. Use in combination

The moisturizing effects of facial masks, water, lotions and creams can be roughly divided into three types: moisturizing, emollient and sealing.

Simply put, facial masks and water are used to moisturize the skin, while lotions and creams containing oil ingredients can slow down the evaporation of moisture on the skin surface. Therefore, when using it, you can combine it with water, lotion or cream to achieve better results.

What do occlusive, emollient, and moisturizing types mean?

1. Closed type: has good moisture absorption capacity, can provide long-lasting moisturizing and seal in moisture.

2. Emollient type: It can prevent water evaporation, make the skin's stratum corneum cells flexible and soften, and allow moisture from the deep epidermis and dermis to enter the stratum corneum.

3. Moisturizing type: can prevent water evaporation.

Therefore, friends in the south can choose moisturizing or hydrating skin care products, while friends in the north are better off choosing skin care products containing more occlusive substances.

In fact, in life, if you want your skin to gradually improve, you need to "apply both internal and external measures". In addition to applying good skin care products, you can also develop the following good habits:

1. Drink more water

If the skin is dehydrated, it will deteriorate, lose elasticity, become dry and dull.

2. Eat more fruits and vegetables

Eating more fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants such as vitamin C and vitamin E can play a positive role in whitening and skin care.

3. Don’t squeeze pimples

Squeezing pimples can easily leave acne marks or acne pits. Among them, it should be noted that pimples in the dangerous triangle area of ​​the face must not be squeezed, otherwise retrograde infection after squeezing may even cause intracranial venous sinusitis.

4. Wear sunscreen

The most important thing to prevent skin aging is to protect against UV rays. Because ultraviolet rays are always present whether it is sunny or cloudy.

So you need to wear sunscreen when you go out. The amount of sunscreen used is generally the size of a one-dollar coin. Too little will have no effect. At the same time, you should reapply it about every 3 to 5 hours according to your daily routine and going out.

5. Avoid staying up late

Staying up late will disrupt your biological clock and affect skin metabolism. Even if you make up for the sleep time after staying up late, it cannot completely make up for the damage caused to the skin.

6. Learn to decompress

When mental stress is too great, it can lead to a series of skin problems, such as pigmentation, acne, and even vitiligo and psoriasis.

7. Keep moving

Scientific and reasonable exercise can enhance the body's metabolism and is beneficial to the renewal of skin cells.

Remember~ You should apply skin care products every day and pay attention to sun protection when going out, so that you can always be beautiful~
